Tuesday

Tasty Tuesday: Fulfilling the Prophecy

Do you remember when microwaves first came on the market? I do (no comments about age here!). They were supposed to revolutionize cooking. Women would no longer be spending hours in the kitchen. The microwave would cut cooking time in half...or more! There's only one problem. That didn't happen. I don't know anybody who really "cooks" in their microwave. Reheat, yes. Steam, sure thing. Defrost, on occasion. But cook? Microwaves didn't live up to their billing.

Well, no longer is that true! I am here to show you a dish that used to be made in the oven that can be cooked in your microwave in less than half the time it normally takes. What is this recipe that just might bring the microwave into it's destiny?

(And can I just say here that I did NOT clean up my microwave just because I knew I would be using it for Tasty Tuesday. It actually looked like that when I went to make this dish. And all I have to say is thank goodness it did, because I would have been cleaning like a mad woman to make it look good for the blog!)
